ABSTRACT:
This device is designed to cover and prevent a hypodermic needle in a syringe from possibly scratching a person after it has been used and discarded, which will help prevent spread of contagious diseases. Primarily, it consists of a transparent sleeve that receives the barrel of a hypodermic syringe, and after the needle has been used, the sleeve is pushed forward to cover the needle. The sleeve and the barrel of the syringe cooperate with each other to lock in the forward and needle covering position, by having a self-contained locking mechanism.
